devel/gobject-introspection has incomplete deps

[Daniel O'Connor]

Hi,
I tried to build R and got the following while it tried to build Pango.
<snip>
checking for SCANNER... yes
checking for FFI... no
checking for ffi.h... configure: error: ffi.h not found
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Please run the gnomelogalyzer, available from
"http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/gnomelogalyzer.sh", which will diagnose the
problem and suggest a solution. If - and only if - the gnomelogalyzer cannot
solve the problem, report the build failure to the FreeBSD GNOME team at
gnome at FreeBSD.org, and attach (a)
"/tmp/work/usr/ports/devel/gobject-introspection/work/gobject-introspection-0.10.8/config.log",
(b) the output of the failed make command, and (c) the gnomelogalyzer output.
Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed
on your system (i.e. an `ls /var/db/pkg`). Put your attachment up on any
website, copy-and-paste into http://freebsd-gnome.pastebin.com, or use
send-pr(1) with the attachment. Try to avoid sending any attachments to the
mailing list (gnome at FreeBSD.org), because attachments sent to FreeBSD mailing
lists are usually discarded by the mailing list software.
*** [do-configure] Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/devel/gobject-introspection.
*** [build-depends] Error code 1

The complete log is available at http://www.gsoft.com.au/~doconnor/gobj-intr-config.log

To work around it I built libffi and now it builds.
